Activation

This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.

Set or switch the deployment target platform (aws/gcp/azure/cloudflare/vercel/kubernetes/vps) and load its service landscape into the working context.
150 charsno explicit “when” trigger
Intermediate

Key capabilities

  • Show current deployment target
  • List available platform catalogs
  • Read platform-specific YAML configurations
  • Summarize service landscape for a target
  • Update `deployment_target` in CLAUDE.md

How it works

The skill either displays the current deployment target and available catalogs or, given a target, reads its configuration, summarizes the service landscape, and updates the `deployment_target`.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
An optional deployment target platform (e.g., aws, gcp, kubernetes)
You get back
Current target, available catalogs, or a summary of the service landscape for the specified target

When to use deploy-target

  • Switch infrastructure provider
  • View platform service landscape
  • Assess migration impact

About this skill

/deploy-target [target]

Owner: platform-lead; architecture impact assessed by lead-architect.

  1. No argument: show current target and the available catalogs under constraints/platforms/.
  2. With argument: read constraints/platforms/<target>.yaml; summarize the landscape in one table — compute, data, messaging, storage, edge, observability, IaC preference, notable limits.
  3. If an architecture already exists (post-ARB), this is a re-platform: lead-architect produces an impact note (which mappings break, migration cost class) BEFORE the switch is confirmed — switching targets after ARB re-opens the ARB gate.
  4. Update CLAUDE.md deployment_target; log an ADR if this changes a prior decision.

Output

Updated config; landscape summary; impact note + reopened gate status if applicable.

When not to use it

  • When the user does not want to set or switch the deployment target platform
  • When the user does not need to load a service landscape into the working context

Limitations

  • Requires `constraints/platforms/<target>.yaml` files to exist for specified targets.
  • Re-platforming an existing architecture requires an impact note from a lead-architect.
  • Changes to the deployment target may require logging an ADR.

How it compares

This skill centralizes the management and understanding of deployment targets and their associated service landscapes, providing a structured overview instead of manually consulting various platform documents.
